Embroidery machines?
#3
My embroidery machine is also a sewing machine. So, yes it does both jobs and well.
Check around and listen to your quilting/embroidery friends as to what they like. Then go to the dealers and test drive what you can afford and think you will like.
Online is also a great resource ... but with almost too much hype.

Waddellrs - before I bought my first embroider machine, I indeed checked out all the places in town. I got information, prices, and demonstrations. I love the convenience of being able to use a thumb drive with mine for patterns. Definitely ask around and good luck! My machine also embroiders and sews but remember, you can't do both at once (LOL).

You can get emb. designs that you can use to quilt. I have some from Embroidery Library. They are nice but you need to make sure the quilt is supported so the weight doesn't pull it out of alignment. I didn't hoop but used the hoopless method with washaway stabilizer. i also pinned near the hoop to minimize shifting.
